A display device includes, a display component, a speaker, a setting component, and a controller. The speaker outputs a first signal having guidance information pertaining to an operation performed on the display device or a status of the display device and a second signal having audio information pertaining to content displayed on the display component. The setting component sets a volume setting value of the display device to performs volume setting. The controller sets output levels of the first signal and the second signal to values corresponding to the volume setting value, respectively, such that the output level of the first signal is greater than or equal to the output level of the second signal, and the output level of the first signal is greater than zero when the volume setting value is set to zero.

A system may be configured to scan audio content providers, using at least one receiver, to identify metadata of audio content instances currently being broadcast by the audio content providers, capture audio content instances from the audio content providers, using the at least one receiver, when the metadata of the audio content instances matches desired content information, and add the captured audio content instances to a customized content queue of desired audio content. The system may also be configured to provide, to a content categorization server, user content preferences indicative of properties of audio content instances preferred by a user, receive, from the content categorization server, desired content information indicative of metadata of audio content instances preferred for experiencing by a user based on the user content preferences, and identify audio content instances broadcast from audio content providers as preferred based on the desired content information.

The influence of a multipath noise and an adjacent interference noise on the quality of reception of a broadcast is indexed in accordance with a received electric field strength level, and a broadcast station which is a station selection target is searched for using this index value.

A reception device detects whether or not there has been updating of configuration information including correlation information correlated with audio data provided in a program from reception signals received in a broadcast, selects one of a plurality of audio data in accordance with operating input, and includes a decoding unit that decodes audio data that the selecting unit has selected. When the configuration information is updated, the selecting unit selects, out of correlation information included in the configuration information that has been updated, audio data corresponding to correlation information including a predetermined element that is the same as correlation information corresponding to audio data selected before updating.
